Homemade Pancake Mix

I am finding that most pancake mixes that are approved for Hannah to have, contain Hyro oils. I am trying to aviod giving those to the kids as much as possible, so Ive been looking for a good mix recipe. I think Ive found one!! I would estimate the cost of making it to be about half the cost of buying it, so thats a plus.

The bottom Pancake is made as the recipe directs. The middle pancake has an extra 1/8 cup of milk added, this is the one I prefer. The top pancake has an extra 1/4 cup of milk added.

I used an old 10 pound bag from pancake mix we had used up to hold my new mix.
Here is the recipe:
INGREDIENTS
4 cups all-purpose flour
2 cups whole wheat flour
2/3 cup sugar
2 tablespoons baking powder
1 tablespoon baking soda
ADDITIONAL INGREDIENTS FOR PANCAKES:
1 egg
3/4 cup milk
ADDITIONAL INGREDIENTS FOR BLUEBERRY BANANA PANCAKES:
1 egg
3/4 cup milk
1 medium ripe banana, mashed
3/4 cup blueberries
DIRECTIONS
In a bowl, combine the first five ingredients. Store in an airtight container in a cool dry place for up to 6 months.
To prepare pancakes: In a bowl, combine egg and milk. Whisk in 1 cup pancake mix. Pour batter by 1/4 cupfuls onto a lightly greased hot griddle; turn when bubbles form on top of pancakes. Cook until second side is golden brown
To prepare blueberry banana pancakes: In a bowl, combine egg, milk and banana. Whisk in 1 cup pancake mix. Fold in blueberries. Cook as directed above.
